I'm giving the movie 5 stars for its visual effects, done primarily in Photoshop, After Effects and Blender, and the acting, which was good. Unfortunately, as so often happens, the problem starts with the script. After watching the entire film very carefully, I'm not exactly sure what it was trying to say. There are obviously plenty of metaphors floating about, too many by half.
Oh, and the director doesn't know where he shot some of the movie. In the end credits, and in an interview with Befores & Afters magazine, he repeatedly refers to the Canadian province of Nova Scotia as "Novia" Scotia. Spelling, like directing, is hard.
